5559cf1460c98eb6998d99784f27de85f95f14d0 doc: Add packages that provide Qt Wayland plugin for Linux (Hennadii Stepanov)

Pull request description:

  When building on Linux using system packages (without depends) the support of Wayland protocol for modern desktop environments (e.g., GNOME, KDE Plasma) depends on the presence of the installed Qt Wayland plugin which is loaded dynamically at the GUI startup.

  1. On Debian/Ubuntu, the [`qtwayland5`](https://packages.ubuntu.com/focal/qtwayland5) package is required (also see this [patch](https://codereview.qt-project.org/c/qt/qtbase/+/231227), and this [doc](https://wiki.debian.org/Wayland#Qt_.28supported_since_5.29)):
  - with `qtwayland5` installed:
  ```
  $ QT_QPA_PLATFORM="wayland;xcb" ./src/qt/bitcoin-qt -printtoconsole
  Warning: Ignoring XDG_SESSION_TYPE=wayland on Gnome. Use QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland to run on Wayland anyway.
  2021-08-05T09:51:31Z Bitcoin Core version v22.99.0-c4b42aa4ffa1 (release build)

  2021-08-05T09:51:31Z System: Debian GNU/Linux 10 (buster), x86_64-little_endian-lp64
  ...
  ```

  - without `qtwayland5`:
  ```
  $ QT_QPA_PLATFORM="wayland;xcb" ./src/qt/bitcoin-qt -printtoconsole
  Warning: Ignoring XDG_SESSION_TYPE=wayland on Gnome. Use QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland to run on Wayland anyway.

  2. On Fedora, the [`qt5-qtwayland`](https://fedora.pkgs.org/34/fedora-x86_64/qt5-qtwayland-5.15.2-4.fc34.x86_64.rpm.html) package is required:
  - with `qt5-qtwayland` installed:

    ACK 5559cf1460c98eb6998d99784f27de85f95f14d0 - I don't think there's any harm to point this out in our Linux build docs. It's not changing our binaries or dependencies in any way.

What is Dash?

Dash is an experimental digital currency that enables instant, private payments to anyone, anywhere in the world. Dash uses peer-to-peer technology to operate with no central authority: managing transactions and issuing money are carried out collectively by the network. Dash Core is the name of the open source software which enables the use of this currency.

Pre-Built Binary

For more information, as well as an immediately usable, binary version of the Dash Core software, see https://www.dash.org/downloads/.

License

Dash Core is released under the terms of the MIT license. See COPYING for more information or see https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT.

Development Process

The master branch is meant to be stable. Development is normally done in separate branches. Tags are created to indicate new official, stable release versions of Dash Core.

The contribution workflow is described in CONTRIBUTING.md and useful hints for developers can be found in doc/developer-notes.md.

Testing

Testing and code review is the bottleneck for development; we get more pull requests than we can review and test on short notice. Please be patient and help out by testing other people's pull requests, and remember this is a security-critical project where any mistake might cost people lots of money.

Automated Testing

Developers are strongly encouraged to write unit tests for new code, and to submit new unit tests for old code. Unit tests can be compiled and run (assuming they weren't disabled in configure) with: make check. Further details on running and extending unit tests can be found in /src/test/README.md.

There are also regression and integration tests, written in Python, that are run automatically on the build server. These tests can be run (if the test dependencies are installed) with: test/functional/test_runner.py

The Travis CI system makes sure that every pull request is built for Windows, Linux, and macOS, and that unit/sanity tests are run automatically.

Manual Quality Assurance (QA) Testing

Changes should be tested by somebody other than the developer who wrote the code. This is especially important for large or high-risk changes. It is useful to add a test plan to the pull request description if testing the changes is not straightforward.

Translations

Changes to translations as well as new translations can be submitted to Dash Core's Transifex page.

Translations are periodically pulled from Transifex and merged into the git repository. See the translation process for details on how this works.

Important: We do not accept translation changes as GitHub pull requests because the next pull from Transifex would automatically overwrite them again.

Translators should also follow the forum.
